Winnie the Pooh

Richie and I finally finished decorating our Christmas tree over the weekend. We are a few weeks behind, but lately I have not felt like doing very much. I have been tired when I got home from work and had too much to do over the weekends. (FYI-not preggo) My tree is complete with my Winnie the Pooh lights. Every Xmas of my life, they have gone on my tree. This year is number 32. My Winnie lights make me happy and I enjoy seeing them every year. I love how Richie is so careful with them, strings them perfectly and then sits back and admires them. I have turned him into a Winnie lover!
I spent Saturday with friends I have not seen in about 4 years or so. I went to an old friends baby shower. Terry and I were really good friends about 10 years ago and have remained in contact after all these years. Email and facebook help. We see each other for important things, bridal and baby showers, weddings and birthday parties. I love that after all this time, we can get together and talk like no time has passed. Since I was on that side of town, I stopped in to see my friend, Amy too. She has a little girl that is almost 7 months old. Little Lizzie is adorable and just lights up a room. I stayed and visited for about 2 hours and headed off to get my phone replaced. The earpiece speaker was broken and needed to be repaired. I couldn't hear anyone when I answered the phone. It was crazy and lasted about 2 days before I had it fixed. Now, I have a new phone and can actually hear people when the call....Imagine that. Sunday, my mom came over and the three of us watched football and ate chicken dumpling soup. It was cold yesterday (mid 30's) so it was nice to have the crockpot going making the house smell so good. It was such a wonderful relaxing Sunday.
